| Contains the main API for using the dynamic linking facilities. A | |
| scripting framework or a language runtime that does not define its own | |
| linker but only uses linkers available in the system will only need to | |
| use classes and interfaces from this package. | |
| </p> | |
| <p> | |
| Languages that wish to define and use their own linkers will also need to | |
| use the {@link jdk.internal.dynalink.linker} package. | |
